    If a judgment upholding a claim relating to an action seeking invalidation or rescission of the incorporation of a membership company becomes final and binding, if the cause of the invalidation or rescission is attributable only to part of the members, the membership company may continue in existence with the consent of all of the other members. In these cases, the members attributable to the cause are deemed to have withdrawn.
